Hello I'm Alpako and I'm from Turkey. I'm fully vaccinated against COVİD 19. I'm currently travelling in South America and right now I'm in Peru.

I recently quit my job at Decathlon in Antalya. For over than a year, I have been into leathercrafting. I make handmade wallets, bags, all sorts of accessories from leather and sometimes I sell them online.

I consider myself as very sociable and I love having new experiences with new people. I am a friendly, calm and honest person. I get along easily. Looking forward to make more friends through the CS network.

I really don't need luxury in places I stay. Actually, I prefer minimal and try to get the best out of the existing resources. So I'll make sure I don't bother hosts.

I'm interested mainly in outdoor activities and leathercrafting, which I've been doing for over a year. I enjoy hiking, trekking, climbing and all sorts of outdoor stuff. Just hanging out with nice people can easily make me happy.
I also enjoy making or learning D.I.Y stuff such as woodwork etc. I'm also into watching and playing team sports, especially football is a passion for me. I'm a big Fenerbahçe fan.
And by the way, I am totally into trying new activities.

I also like to have chill days with a couple of drinks (especially a good beer) and nice music or just watching a movie, hanging out :) In general, I get along with most people I meet and have a good time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this network is an amazing tool to feel the culture of the country in which you're travelling. After all, beside visiting the nice places and landscapes, people travel to find out more about different cultures and people and to feel like a local during their holiday. That is my main motivation for using Couchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have a photo with a kangaroo face to face. Does that count ?

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help those interested in progressing in their English, French or Turkish. Just talking about everything and nothing is the best way to learn a language.

I would love to improve my Spanish. (Hablo un poco ahora y quiero aprender mas :)

I'm into outdoors and D.I.Y stuff so I would love to share and exchange about experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can and would be happy to teach English, French or Turkish (of course, I don't have a degree in teaching but I'm fluent in all three of them).

I can cook and help with the household chores in general.
